Of course nobody needs a stiroff, no more than anybody needs a second martini. The idea is to more or less give a tip of the hat to the stiroffs, "workings" and "frolics" that integrated work, music and all-around fun. The appeal is not unlike that of a re-enactment. And a quart of gumbo and two slices of stack cake (layers of ginger-flavored pancakes with apple butter slathered in-between) are on reserve for M.Mario.
